Flights to Danli, El Paraiso Department from NT$52,315

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Danli could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Danli in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
